Uncasville, Conn. - The Connecticut Sun announced today that guard Jasmine Thomas has been signed to a multi-year contract.
"We are excited about re-signing Jas to a multi-year contract," Sun head coach and general manager Curt Miller said. "She is a true professional and has been a leader for our young team on and off the court. She creates the pace we desire to play with at the offensive end while spearheading our defensive pressure. Jas has been a cornerstone of the team since my arrival and has played a big part in the resurgence of the Sun franchise."
"I'm extremely happy to be back with my Connecticut Sun family," Thomas said. "I'm proud to be part of the growth our organization has made in the last few seasons. Our culture is amazing and our fan support is phenomenal. Connecticut feels like home to me. It's difficult to keep such a talented group together for multiple seasons, so I'm honored to continue playing with these women. I'm looking forward to my leadership role on and off the court, but also to the emergence of the many young leaders on this squad. We're determined to hang a championship banner in Mohegan Sun. Let's get it!"
The 5-foot-9 guard earned her first WNBA All-Star nod in 2017 and has helped the Sun to a 42-26 record over the last two seasons - the third best regular season record in the WNBA over that span.
